Abstract

This study is analized with how Mindfulness Based Breathing and Body Scan influences to elderly women's attentive concentration measured by 2-channel system EEG(Electroencephalogram) which method is objectively and determinately. The subjects in this study are 60 aged over 65years of elderly women in K city, who were divided into two groups; such as 30 of the experimental group and 30 of the control group checked by EEG before and after the treatment. The study started from March to July in 2013. The treatment was conducted by ones a week, 60minutes a time for 16 weeks. The result in experimental group is indicated as followed. The Attention Quotient Lt(69.61/70.85, p<.024) showed higher score after treatment, and Attention Quotient Rate Lt(4.22/3.75, p<.037), Attention Quotient Rate Rt(4.29/3.70, p<.019) did show statistically lower score after treatment. Attention Quotient is shown attentive concentration and awareness in the brain. Therefore, Mindfulness Based Breathing and Body Scan is proved the value and efficiency for activating elderly women's attentive concentration by a way of practical using in neuroscience.

본 연구는 마음챙김 호흡과 신체이완이 여성노인의 주의집중력에 어떤 영향을 미치는 지를 분석하기 위하여 객관적이고 정량적인 2-channel system EEG(electroencephalogram: EEG)를 통해 분석하였다. 연구 대상은 김포시에 거주하는 65세이상 여성노인 60명으로 그중 30명은 실험집단으로, 30명은 통제집단으로 선정하였다. 프로그램 실시 전과 후에 EEG를 측정하였다. 연구기간은 2013년 3월에서 2013년 7월까지 이며, 프로그램은 주 1회, 회기 당 60분씩, 총 16주 동안 실시하였다. 연구 결과는 다음과 같다. 실험집단에서 주의지수 우뇌(69.61/70.85, p<.024), 주의지수 비율 좌뇌(4.22/3.75, p<.037), 주의지수 비율 우뇌(4.29/3.70, p<.019)로 나타났다. 주의지수는 주의집중력 등 각성상태를 나타내는 지수이다. 따라서 마음챙김 호흡과 신체이완이 여성 노인의 주의집중력을 향상시킬 수 있는 실천적인 방법으로서 효용과 가치가 있다는 것을 뇌과학적으로 분석한 것에 의의가 있다.
